Summary
This study is testing a tablet-based meditation game called MediTrain to see if it can help older adults improve their thinking skills and manage stress. Researchers will enroll 4,000 people aged 60 and older to find the best amount of game play needed for benefits. The game adapts to each person's skill level, making it easier for beginners to practice focused attention.
